to evaluate current releases of non-native salmonids in Europe and the social, economic and ecological mechanisms underlying their invasion potential (WP 1)

to investigate the ecological and evolutionary impacts of biological invasions by salmonids (WP 2)

to evaluate how salmonid invasions are perceived by the public and by key stakeholders (WP 3)

to provide integrated recommendations for policy and management of salmonid invasions (WP 4)

SalmoInvade will integrate novel eco-evolutionary and socio-economic hypotheses to evaluate the impacts and consequences of non-native salmonid invasions. The results are expected to influence policy and management of this economically important group of fish.

SalmoInvade started in January 2014, and is a three-year project funded by the Swedish Research Council Formas, grant number: 226-2013-1875 (Sweden), the French National Research Agency - ANR, grant number: 13-EDIB-0002 (France), the German Research Foundation- DFG, grant number: AR 712/4-1(Germany) and the Research Council of Norway - RCN, grant number: 235949 (Norway).
